From the name you might guess that the fourth quarter is Indian, you'd be right. Try some great interpretations of Chinese food here. Generally Indians have a problem with Chinese food so they've added spices and sauces which they find more palatable. It's actually very good!
Church street, off Brigade Road
Perhaps the best Punjabi restaurant I've ever eaten in. Everything on the menu is excellent, it's a small cramped place so you may have to sit outside for a bit until they have a table for you.
Church street, off Brigade Road
Chinese restaurant, large and looks upmarket, but is very reasonable and the food is good! Try their 'eat as much as you want' buffet at lunchtime.
It's also on Church Street (off M G Road) and it's a good place to know becuase this street is full of restaurants, all sorts of food and nearly all very good).
Price: Buffet lunch, around 215/Rs per person (about 3 and a bit euros).
